Piece of old Christmas card cut out, edges distressed with Distress ink, matting made by colouring white paper with a Promarker pen, mounted on scraps for dimension, recycled a ribbon from a Christmas pressie, added lots of different Stickles for the glitter effect. Bazzill white hammered cardstock.

There's stamping on the inside, forgot to take a pic of it.

Thank you for visiting, hope you come back soon again! Have a lovely Saturday evening!

Good morning Sweeties!!!! Time for team Abi at Sweet Stampin', this week we want to see some Loooove ♥! We're being sponsored by Ribbon Girl with a fabby prize, check our blog for all info and to see the sweetest team's projects. I was inspired by a card the super talented Kim Dellow had created.

Simply Create Too wants to see Hearts/Valentine cards, check our blog for all details and to see the teams fantastic cards, they are a real treat for the eye. I went for Paris silhouette and dramatic colours.

Thank you so much for visiting, it's much appreciated! Mum's still at hospital, she's feeling much better, but the blood count was still low, apparently the Chemo thing. She can't have visitors as her immune defence is low, so I'm blowing heart shaped bubbles her way!

Hello sweet stampin' friends! I have two New Years's Resolutions for 2015; To have fun and to use the heap of unused schtuff.....no buying before using the shiny things I have in the crafty corner. The workout bit is easy, I actually enjoy it...when I manage to get to the gym. I've come to the age when a cookie to much actually adds weight! So this never before used stamp sums everything up neatly.

Being a Science teacher, I found this card amusing to create....I'm a nerd/geek too! So Violet pinkish against Blueish Green, curved lines and straight, bold and thin text, circles and squares, glossy and mat, metallic and non-metallic, imperfect and immaculate...

I hope you're having a wonderful weekend. I'm feeling proud today; the kind people at the Craft Stamper sent me the issue where my card is published. They even sent the card back to me! To be there amongst all the super talented craft people is amazing. I'm always thinking that I wish I could make such lovely projects they do. Thank you so much for this Craft Stamper!

It's already time for a new challenge at Sweet Stampin'. This week we want to se Masculine Cards. Quixotic Paperie are sponsoring us this week with a fabby prize. They do have such lovely stamps, it was a real treat to just browse.

Thank you so much for visiting, it means the world! And thank you for all wishes for Mum, the operation went well and she'll stay at hospital at least one more week. The staff is very kind and effective, it's a huge relief, she'll soon be up and about again.

2014 had it's ups and downs; one of the ups was that a card was chosen to be published in the Craft Stamper February 2015 issue, it's out now, you can find it at page 95. I'm eagerly waiting for the issue arriving to Sweden so that I can have a look myself. I guess it'll be a surreal feeling to find it there. I could never imagine that something I was inspired by at the bus home from work could end up in a magazine.

My dear friend died of cancer and Mum got the diagnos, you have to believe in all things good here in life.

Hiya, time for something new at the Sweet Stampin' Challenge. It could be a new baby, new stash or whatever new you would like to share as long as there's rubber or digi stamping. We're kindly being sponsored by Wild Orchid Crafts this week.

I made good use of a win from Bugaboo stamps, some new red Pro Markers, a new Wink of Stella pen and a Nestie Label. Santa spoilt me a bit! The papers are DQWV.

Thank you so much for visiting, I've been down with the flu and will catch up with blog visits whilst drinking lots of tea. Oldest son ordered a sampler package with tea from China to me for Christmas so everything is good!

We're celebrating at Simply Create Too, why not join us? Check our blog for all the details and to see the teams fabulous projects. I'm a bit late with the post, I had it scheduled but must have missed something. I'm wishing you all love, health an joy for 2015!!!!!

The background was made with a large Hero Arts stamp stamped with embossing ink and heat embossed with a pearl and sparkle mix of powders. Then coloured with Aqua Markers.

The Tilda glass was stamped with blackVersa fine and layered for dimension. Some Stickles and highlights were added, the later with a white Sakura pen. The bubbles were made with baby blue Liquid pearls.

The Vilda stamps sentiment says Too much of something can be wonderful in Swedish.

Thank you so much for visiting, it's much appreciated. I'll be back with a new card tomorrow.
